This is an actual filming in 1932 with a woman crossing Time Square , New York , hanging by her teeth. This is real and what I love is that she does an aerobic routine while she is hanging by her teeth; because hanging by her teeth 500 feet up might not be enticing enough. Awesome and will never be repeated.

  • I believe that she's Tiny Kline. Much later the first Tinkerbell at Disneyland, where she also had to hang by her teeth.

    The University of Illinois has a biography coming out in 2008.

  • Thank 4 the info on Tiny Kline. I haven't found a picture on the net that proves this. Do you?

  • I don't have definite proof, but infer it from:

    Tiny Kline crossed Broadway hanging by her teeth, just as this woman did.

    Tiny Kline was "tiny", as was this woman.

    Tiny Kline was from Hungary; this woman has a Hungarian accent.

    Not certain, but better than 95% likely (if I can make up a number).

  • Thanks 4 the info.

  • Thanks.

    And do you have more footage about her ? If yes, could you post it please ?

  • That's all I got of her. This is from the movie I have called "Gizmo". It has a bunch of old footage of amazing stunts and early inventions. Well worth buying or renting. Also, nothing in the credits about her. But she is amazing!!! No way would they ever let someone do a stunt like that again!!!

  • she was also the first tinkerbell.

  • This is definitely Tiny Kline, a Hungarian-born burlesque dancer and aerialist who became Disneyland's first Tinker Bell at the age of 70. In October 1932, Kline performed this iron-jaw stunt across Times Square as a way to advertise a vaudeville show that she was in. Kline's fascinating memoir will be published by University of Illinois Press in June 2008.

  • This Is Tiny Kline read her book it's at Amazon new and used, Cirrus Queen & Tinker Bell - The Memoir of Tiny Kline, the NYPD police did arrest her, but the judge did let her go, The book is very well written check it out it will answer all your questions a true story.

  • @BobShair this is in fact tiny kline, also known as helen deutsch also known as Helen Kreinbrink...aka my great great aunt.

  • she got good tits

  • @beebfader Wanna hear a joke? 'britains got talent'.... Nuff said

  • @spitfireJEJ Yes. It's odd that they'd arrest her only after the stunt was completed, when it couldn't possibly have been set up in secret. Get the feeling a little money changed hands, maybe?

  • Must have been quite a logistical challenge to stretch the rope all that way before the deed was done. I suspect there is a lot about this stunt we do not know. Perhaps Tiny Kline's memoirs fill us in a little more. She deserves to be better known.

  • wellthat was interesting and wow how amazing would that have been to see live

  • That's fcking insane.

  • @BobShair

    this is my great great aunt. and yes this is her. she was married to Otto Klien. she is in her 40's when she did this

  • Simply fantastic.
